Hi,

If I open (not preview) received emails with embedded pictures, these are
initially diplayed as text. That is intended per my settings. Next I click on
the information line above the header and choose "display as HTML" which causes
the email to display in HTML with all the pictures displaying as red X's. Next I
choose "Download pictures" and nothing happens, still the red X's.

But the same message which is still displaying in the preview pane shows the
pictures. Now: how do I make the separate Window display the same pictures? May
be I need to refresh the window but I can't find a refresh option. So, the only
way is close the message, open it again, select the HTML option again, download
the pictures again and then they display. Quite annoying.

Besides enabling HTML and picture download by default, is there any other
setting I've not seen so far? Whats wrong?

Thx for your response
Klaus
